Today I installed viewvc to a CentOS VPS...
Only to find it's asking for a later version...
[root@vps112 /]# /usr/local/viewvc/bin/cgi/viewvc.cgi

Checking with the CentOS repository I see this:
subversion.i386 1.1.4-2.ent installed
There is no 1.2.0 or above.
This is apparently due to backporting, meaning that software is bug fixed,
but the versions aren't increased.
Please can you make your software CentOS and RHEL compatible.
